Tom Verlaine/West Germany 1982

A new excavated sound source has been released, recorded in high quality stereo audience recording of a German performance in 1982, just after the release of “WORDS FROM THE FRONT”! On June 20, 1982, just after the release of his third solo album “WORDS FROM THE FRONT”, a new excavated sound source has been released, recorded in high quality stereo audience recording of a live performance at Zege Bohem, a nightclub that opened in 1981 from the German tour! It has been digitally transferred from the low gene master, and the sound quality can be said to be in the upper class at that time, and the vocals as well as each part are very well balanced, and it is recorded with a wide range of clear high quality sound! In addition, the pitch deviation caused by the master has been carefully corrected. This live performance features Fred Smith, the bassist of Television who also participated in Tom’s solo album, on bass, Jay Dee Duty (Patti Smith Group), who also participated in the recording, on drums, and Jimmy Lipp, who participated in the recording of “WORDS FROM THE FRONT” and joined Television in 2007. The set list featured four songs from the new album “WORDS FROM THE FRONT” at the time, as well as songs from the Television era such as “Marquee Moon” and “Glory.” At the end of the encore, they played “Wild Thing,” a hit number by the Troggs that is also known for its cover of Jimi Hendrix and others! You can enjoy a tense performance reminiscent of Television in the late 70s!
